Lisa,

I had recurrent plugged ducts (almost daily) and frequent mastitis with my
first, and was able to get it under control with three times daily use of
1200-2400 mg lecithin.  It was recommended by my LCs, and know many others
who have had success with that as well. Not sure if that helps...

Also, I was able to fight advanced mastitis (104 degree fever, etc.) without
antibiotics using swallowed raw garlic.. Worked within a half hour for me.

Nicki

Subject: recurrent mastitis

Hello folks,
Just have a client with recurrent mastitis.
All obvious things like tight bra, breast drainage, checking for thrush.
M.O. is only using Keflex.
Is there any other ab that can be used if keflex isn't cutting it?
She's considering u/s now too!
What have I missed.
Also there was recent talk of castor oil compresses.
what does that do?
Thanks
From Lisa in Canberra Australia
